Colleen Chrzanowski Photography

Chapter: Chicago /
Pro Type: Photographer

Colleen Chrzanowski is a Chicago area based Kids + Fashion photographer who frequently also works as local out of NYC. She defines her style as crisp, forward and fresh. With technical accuracy and ever rising standards defined by her early days growing up in a family of entrepreneurs and artists, she’s become known for capturing the perfect combination of expressive energy, authentic moments, and textural light on set.

When she's not working on a women or kids fashion campaign in NYC or LA, you can find her in her studio in the West Town neighborhood of Chicago, working her magic on Kids portfolio shoots and creating content for her ongoing #denimjacketportrait project. After years of honing her craft shooting sessions for top kids in the fashion and tv/film industry, she's built a reputation that has her session days booking up in a matter of hours. Mesmerized by faces that emote, even at a standstill, Colleen brings awe and creativity to every shoot. She relishes how each kid brings their own unique essence into the studio and helps them find a way to showcase that quality on set. It's that ability to relate, engage and connect that makes her work shine.
